Rutgers football faces Kansas State in the Rate Bowl on Thursday in the Rate Bowl. And for ESPN analyst Tom Luginbill, this is an intriguing game between two teams with a similar mentality.

Luginbill has the call for ESPN on Wednesday as Rutgers looks to match the program’s best win total since 2014. In that season, the Scarlet Knights finished 8-5 following an impressive bowl win over North Carolina.

Rutgers closed out its regular season at 7-5 (3-5 Big Ten) with three wins from the final four games. Now they face a big task in the Rate Bowl against Kansas State (5:30 p.m. ET, ESPN).
